Emi is 3!

We celebrated Emi's Birthday today at Auntie Kara's house for a tinkerbell pool party. We sure love little Pihana Okalani, she is getting so cute and big (even though she is still tiny)

P!ATD and No Doubt Concert

On friday night we got to go the the No Doubt concert and Panic! at the Disco opened for them. It was seriously the best concert I've ever been to. Panic sounded amazing with their new bassist and guitarist. No Doubt was phenomenal! Gwen was so awesome, especially her abs (uh..two kids, really?). So impressed!!! I was really hoping to meet Gwen, but unfortunately the security was really tight and being related to Brendon wasn't enough. Oh well, it was still an awesome show and I think we all had so much fun!

Waiting for the show to start

Sean, Kyla, Mase and me, still waiting...

Cool pic taken by my brother-in-law Mike...Mase is so hot!

The stage was so cool! I was loving it all!

Panic at the disco

The siblings...such a great looking family!

The whole gang after the show...sorry about the smokiness...they used fog.

Birthday at Disneyland

We went down to Disneyland for my brother, Tomi's and My birthday. Matt, Kendra and their kiddos met up with us too! Here are some pictures from our Happy Disneyland day!

The kids trying on their hats that they wore to Disneyland...don't they look so excited?

1st ride: Finding Nemo. The kids were mesmerized by the things they saw under water.

Next: Autotopia! Emi drove and was one crazy driver!

Three princesses in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle.

Uncle Tomi spoiled the kids and got them sparkly Minnie Ears. Thank you Uncle Tomi!

Don't they look so cute with their Minnie Ears?

Emi took this picture of Grandpa all wiped out! Classic!

It was pretty hot there, so we cooled off by soaking our feet. Great idea Miya!

The two who made this trip happen...Thanks Mom and Bob!

Matt, Kendra and Keia in the Haunted Mansion.

Miya rode Splash Mountain for the 1st time and loved it! Here we are dry...

and here we are Wet!!!

Pictures I've been meaning to post

For the 4th of July, Matt, Kendra, and the kids came to Vegas to celebrate. Here are some pics from their stay.

Mason and Emi

As Miya would say, "We're so stylish!"

Mattix and Emi were too cute together. Emi kept treating Mattix like he was a baby. It was pretty silly since Mattix is bigger than Emi.

Better Late Than Never

Last Saturday, my sister-in-law(Kara) threw a rockin' birthday party for her BFF, Erin. Now, for those who know Kara, she goes all out with her parties! Here are some pics from the craycee party:

Our 6 year anniversary

Sunday was Mason and my 6 year anniversary. We celebrated by staying at Planet Hollywood Hotel here in Vegas. The hotel wasn't anything great, but we sure had a fun night together. After having kids I forgot how much I love just hanging out with my best friend. I am so grateful for my sexy husband and for the best 6 years of my life!

The LAST (scantily clad) post of Progress!

Well we stuck it out for the scheduled 5 months of clean eating and working out with occasional (very occasional) cheat days. We reached our goals and feel great. Erika steadily lost fat as she toned up her muscles and dropped from 118 to 108. Mason gained muscle and a bunch of fat going from 164 up to 176 only to cut down to 160.

It was a great goal to work on together and was very fun to be focused in and out of the gym for several months. Speaking of In-n-Out I hear a double-double calling my name...
